The Monthly Sport of Mirpur Khas in Pakistan

The district of Mirpur Khas in Pakistan is one of the last to have asignificant (by Pakistan’s abysmal standards) population of Hindus.What do I mean by “significant”? Please don’t think 80.74% like thepercentage of Muslims in Kairana. Remember this is Pakistan,notorious for exterminating its minorities. In Pakistan, there areonly a total of about 1.5 to 2% Hindus left. In Mirpur Khasdistrict, this number is one of the highest at around 30%.

Now, in Mirpur Khas, every month a ritual sport happens. No, notCricket. Instead, an underage Hindu girl is kidnapped by Muslim goons,beaten, threatened etc. and forced to convert to Islam.Here is avery short BBC clip on one such case (which also gives thebackground in general):

Now, the state government of Sindh even tried to pass a law toprotect these helpless Hindus—the law would prohibit theconversion of a minor (age less than 18). The law passed in Nov 2016, but the Islamicfundamentalists of Pakistan would have none of it—theydeem any such law “anti Islamic.”

So the sickening process of forced conversions of Hindu girls inSindh continues— here is a report by BBCafterthe law waspassed:

Now, as the custodians of secular values, one wonders why our highlyvocal MSM never brings their ire upon this issue. An entirecommunity, religion, and culture is being systematically andbrutally wiped out through these forced conversions, but there isnary an article on this from the likes of those who love to publisharticle after article bashing “Hindu fundamentalists” or “Saffronterror” or any other imaginary bogey.
